  • Publication number: 20170082676
    Abstract: The present invention provides a singularity locator that enables a singularity such as a fault to be located even in a near-end section. One embodiment of the present invention is a singularity locator (1) that locates a singularity by comparing a transmission wave with a reflected wave of the transmission wave reflected at the singularity at which impedance changes. The transmission wave is a frequency modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) with a continuously modulated frequency, and the singularity is located based on a difference in frequency between the transmission wave and the reflected wave.
    Type: Application
